Hotels in Grateley

"Great location, rooms are nice, breakfast is great especially the eggs!"

"Great hotel"

"Breakfast choices were excellent. The buffet has eggs over easy , scrambled plus ham,sausage too much to mention. Plus real fresh bread, cereals any kind of coffee and hot drinks plus juices! "

"Room was clean & tidy, may be a bit on the "tired" side, but no complaints. The connecting corridors from reception to accommodation blocks were cold, but the accommodation blocks and rooms were nice & warm. Restaurant menu I thought was limited - certainly nothing special and a bit on the prciet side for what you got (I had a chicken Cesar salad and it wasn't the best - lettuce seemed like it was from a 99p ASDA packet and on the "turn", about 6 small croutons, and chicken “breast” that had been "coated" in something...and was very wet - all the signs of cheap ingredients used to try and make an expensive looking dish (it didn’t look or taste it, sorry). Breakfast – good selection – cold & hot. Usual problem with cooked food left under heat lamps… dried out food, especially the eggs, followed by the beans and mushrooms – I asked for poached eggs and they were PERFECT. Overall, an ok stay, clean & tidy, but a tired hotel (I stayed here around 10 yrs ago and nothing had changed) – has great potential due to outs “rural & woodland” setting, but needs investment."

"All staff members were very helpful it was okay I think they should offer something like poached eggs or something I would rate the breakfast as a 3 star "

"Hotel is lovely with a great setting on the river, staff were very helpful and friendly, breakfast was first class, as was the Evening meal, did feel that the tables in the restaurant were a bit dated so a cloth to cover the table would have made it look so much nicer, I appreciate that the building is very old and had I known how noisy it was going to be I would have asked for an upstairs room, you could hear every step because the floorboards were very creaky and none of room doors had a soft close mechanism so there was constant door banging, it would also have been helpful if all guests could be reminded to be considerate by keeping the noise down when returning to there rooms late at night on the information sheet in the room. Having said all that it is a beautiful place in a great location and I will definitely be returning in a few months. Thank you "

"The staff were above and beyond helpful. Kind and very welcoming. The breakfast was really good. I would go back."

"The only issue we had was when we finished our meal in the bar the plates and cutlery were not cleared from our table and were still on the table when we left the bar at the end of the evening"

"It's such a shame! The building of the old Mercure hotel holds ok. The double room was spacious, clean, comfortable and with an amazing close view of the Winchester cathedral (practically over its grounds). But there was no milk for the tea in the room and the television did not show a single BBC channel (not even radio stations), had no access to satelite, internet or cable. When I called reception to ask if perhaps there was something I was not doing properly with the remote control, I was asked if the TV was showing other channels. When I said that only commercial channels seemed to be available, I was told that this was what was on offer and that's it. In some way, I'm grateful for the experience because it opened my eyes to how miserable life would be without the BBC service. I'll certainly pay the BBC licence with gusto now! "
